DOAG Development Conference, JDeveloper 12c New Features

Yesterday, 14th June 2012, the first DOAG Developer Conference to place in Bonn, Germany. Among the many sessions one hosted by Frank Nimphius revealed new features for the upcoming major release of JDeveloper 12c. As the version is still in development there is no guarantee that all features he talked about are in when we get 12c. Nevertheless I like to mention some of the features. The list I present here is not the full list as there are way too much to mention them all.

GlassFish will be a supported server

Pretty URL: URLs of applications will be more human readable, aka we don’t see the state tokens any longer

IDE window system is based on NetBeans code

New Wizzards to create OSGI Extension. Most code to wire the extension up is generated, we only need to add code to some methods.

No need to deploy an extension. It can be tested and run right out of JDeveloper 12c

Full Maven Support with Hudson integration: ojdeploy plugin for Maven

Better RESTservice support

Groovy debugger: allows to set breakpoints in Groovy code and see the attributes like in normal java debugger
